Evelyn Lopez Music Journalist 20-year-old Natalie Wu, who goes by Wisp, experienced something unique to a new generation of artists. Her song “Your face” off her first EP Pandora had blown up overnight. I haven’t downloaded Tiktok for almost a year now, but even I remember her song being used in videos all over my timeline. Since then, she has joined Panchiko for a few shows on their third tour. A […]
Evelyn Lopez Music Journalist This past weekend was the only Texas stop for the Big Ideas Tour. A fashionable diva in a graphic tee with a tie print and camo jongs (slang for long jean shorts) is one of my favorite sets from weekend two at ACL. This past summer, Remi Wolf released her second album, Big Ideas (2024). An alternative pop album full of catchy hooks, funky instrumentals, […]
Evelyn Lopez Music Journalist Weekend one of ACL has wrapped, and many are anticipating more that Weekend Two will bring. I have seen multiple Tweets and videos from this past weekend showing how big the crowds were. An aerial view over Chappell Roan's set showed Zilker Park at its fullest and almost unrecognizable. People have advised me to wear comfortable shoes, stay extremely hydrated, and protect my lungs from the […]
By Evelyn Lopez Music Journalist Two Star & The Dream Police (2024), the debut studio album from Mike Gordon, a.k.a. Mk.gee, was released in February earlier this year. The 12-track album is filled with distorted guitar breaks, 80’s synths, and a production style many have compared to Phil Collins. The album has no listed features unless you are counting the production credits to Dijon on “New Low” and "DNM.” I […]
By Evelyn Lopez Music Journalist Ever since the release of Shelter (2023) last summer, I have been falling in love with the sound and lyricism of Alice Phoebe Lou. This album has resonated with me the most out of any of her projects. My dreams of seeing my favorite tracks live and breathing in the same air as an angel came true on a Tuesday. The evening of April 16 […]
Evelyn Lopez Music Journalist I have experienced a full-circle moment. Over a year ago, I wrote an album review for Scaring The Hoes Vol. 1, and on April 11, I heard some of my favorite tracks from this project live. This is my first concert review with my first media pass! I cannot express how excited I was to be at this show. As a fan of Danny Brown, this […]
By Evelyn Lopez Music Journalist Since spring has started, I have actively been curating my rotation with exciting new releases and a few tracks from the past that I may have slept on. This eclectic mix pulls me out of my seasonal depression, headlining April showers and my days at Sewell. Here is a sneak peek of my soundtrack for Spring 23’. “Ocho Rios” – Daniel Caesar […]
By Evelyn Lopez Music Journalist The debut collaborative album from JPEGMAFIA and Danny Brown, Scaring the Hoes, was released on March 24, 2023, after a year of anticipation. The last project released by JPEGMAFIA was LP! in 2021, and for Danny Brown, it was uknowhatimsayin¿ in 2019. Honestly, fans of both of these rappers may have anticipated this collaborative project before JPEG’s Twitter hints. Both artists like to experiment in […]
By Evelyn Lopez Rap/Hip-Hop Music Journalist I first came across Sal Patlan at an open mic night at Stellar Coffee, where he was performing his poetry. I resonated with his art, and he had a sick flow to it too. Much later, I met him through mutual friends, and after experiencing his sense of humor, I knew I would become friends with him too. Sal Patlan is a first-generation student […]
